The equation to solve for n, the number of pounds of potatoes the farmer put in the sack is the second option

n = 192 ÷ 8 + 138 ÷ 6

What is an equation?; An equation is a statement that indicates the equivalence between expressions.

The weight of Yukan gold potatoes the farmer harvested = 192 pounds

Weight of russet potatoes he harvested = 138 pounds

The weight of Yukan Gold potatoes per basket is; 192/8 = 24 pounds

Weight of Russet potatoes per basket is; 138/6 = 23 pounds

The number of Yukan Gold potatoes and russel potatoes the farmer put in the sack is; 24 + 23 = 192/8 + 138/6, which corresponds with the second option
